Good Morning Drummerworld!
My name is Martin and I'm a 53 year-old Englishman who, having seen Rush in Manchester in 2013 and watched some Neil Peart videos, decided that I want to learn to play the drums.
On asking @rushtheband on Twitter if it was too late, to my surprise, I got a reply saying "It is never too late!".
What more of an excuse did I need? :)
So this weekend I popped to a nearby music store, bought a 12" Evans RealFeel practice pad, a pair of Vic Firth 5A sticks and a Neil Peart Drumming Helmet!
Did I buy the right gear? I plan to start by learning the rudiments and am kicking off with the single stroke roll.
Anyway ladies and gentlemen, I thought I'd start off with an introductory post and issue a warning thus;
They say the only stupid question is the one that doesn't get asked. Well, good people of Drummerworld, prepare yourself for a whole host of stupid questions!
Best regards
Martin
